Is it dead in here?

Get it? Because I'm a vampire. Mu-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha… It’s funny.

No new posts here since... Forever?

Where'd everyone go? Busy? Distracted? I know that feel.

Summer torpor, except of course for Philo. Too much sun makes kindred lethargic.

Personally, I just moved to Warsaw and have been busy with organizing this and my new job for the last month or so... not much time or energy to roleplay, as a result.

Very funny...
As far as I know it started in 10th century... To think Poles are at least 30% German by blood. I saw a paper on it. What went wrong and where?

At least this time it is only one German, without all that Rote Pest from the Eest...

That particular confusion I get when I read something, keep going, then stumble across a word I don't know and try to figure it out, only to realize I am two exchanges into a language I am not fluent in (and didn't realize I was translating), but it's the English phrase I missed.

Rote Pest? What meanest thou by this parsing?

Stalin. Ring a bell?

Red pest from the East... Commies in general, Soviet Commies in particular?

ahh, Rote=red. I was trying to make it the English word 'rote'. Makes so much more sense now.

Mein Gott! Kennen Sie nicht Deutsch sprechen?






Well... I forgot almost all of it, but anyway...

The last two tries of German were awful, but other than that, A+, I'm so proud of you. (Actually, my flatmate knows some German, though she admits it is rusty and she hasn't used it for a few years. Let's see if I can help her git gud at it again...)

Sadly the only languages aside from English that I have any passing familiarity with are Sindarin and Dovahzul.

Jewish . . . people? I understand all of the individual words you said, but when placed together in that order . . .

Nah. The only people I have met who I can actually say I hold a negative bias to are the Quebequa. Jews make for great drinking buddies, especially if you can bend the conversation to philosophy or theology. I have failed to remember many a great, deep conversation where we uncovered hidden meanings of the universe. Or not. It's mostly a whiskey obscured blur.
